I haven‘t read this short story collection yet, but it contains Vampyre by John William Polidori that was spurred from the same contest that produced Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. The story was published without Polidori‘s permission and credit was given to Lord Byron. Despite efforts by both men, the story continued to be credited to Bryon.
